A wager a wager and you'll go with meaway to the May blooming fielda maiden you will go to the bloomfield hillbut a maiden you never will returnA wager, a wager and I will go with youaway to the May blooming fielda maiden I will go to the bloomfield hilland a maiden I will returnSo away went this young man,his wager for to winaway to the May blooming fieldHe sat himself downby the clear flowing streamand he fell fast asleep on the bankNine times she walkedAround the crown of his headand nine times she walked around his feetNine times she kissed his red ruby lipsas he lay on the bank fast asleepAnd the ring that she wore on her little fingerthe same did she place on his ownthat it might be a token of her love to himLetras de cancionesthat she had been there and was goneIf I was awake as I was asleepthis maiden she never would have fledIt's her I would have killed,her blood I would have spilledand the birds told the story of the deadOh hard-hearted young man,hard-hearted youthYour heart's as hard as any stoneFor to think to kill onewho had loved you so longand I'll weep o'er the grave you lie in.
